Tomlin Downplays Play-Calling Drama

Fear not, Steelers fans. Coach Mike Tomlin dismissed Ben Roethlisberger’s post-game comments about Todd Haley’s play-calling and game plan as frustration, but said he met with the Steelers quarterback anyway to make sure “he’s on board with what it is we’re doing.”

A lot of attention has been heaped on Roethlisberger’s comment that Haley’s original play-call on the touchdown pass to Heath Miller at the end of the first half was “not a good call” because of the type of defense the Cowboys showed when Roethlisberger went to the line of scrimmage.

But having a play-call not fit a certain defensive look happens all the time, Tomlin said. Quarterbacks routinely change a play when that happens by calling an audible at the line of scrimmage.
